U.S. President Barack Obama speaks at the White House Correspondents' Association Annual Dinner
President Obama pokes fun at himself, his Republican rivals, and the press corp during the White House Correspondents' Association Annual Dinner. Obama says Mitt Romney would probably consider the dinner's location, the Washington Hilton, a "fixer upper." White House Press Secretary Jay Carney is heard at the beginning calling for Obama's microphone to be turned off while the President is off-stage, all as part of a joke playing off a recent instance where the President unwittingly made comments in front of a live mic.
